seems like he could easily get another account, but surely with this proof RIO should ban him from visions? ty for the posts spork, poker would be better off if more people had the courage and humility to post like this.

Only then?

You make a valid point, but I would like to believe it was more of a:

"My doubts/issues are finally boiling over as actions are being taken"

My wording was really poor here, I admit.

Really not trying to play the victim here, but squid taking me in very early in my poker exposure and the constant repetition of how he made it to where he was really did seem to have a brainwash-esque effect on my view of the game looking back. I was completely transparent with global poker support in an email regarding what I was using while on their site.

I don't blame anyone for having just as many issues with me as him. Being a part of that group is going to forever be weighing me down in the back of my mind poker-wise. All I can do from here on out is be transparent about what happened, never do it again, and do the absolute best I can in poker the correct way. (Which has actually been heaps better, see prev. replies)

Thread title made me think of Girah. Does anybody even remember that name? I guess he was basically a saint compared to Squid lol

Yeah when I was discussing this with a friend after seeing the article, two other names popped into my head of "young prodigy's crushing it".

Those names were:

Girah
Fedor Kruse
This guy

I guess it's part of the sociopathic and narcissistic traits of these people that you would want to show the world your greatness as well.

They all did similar pieces in poker media touting their own skill.

He also played on GG Poker
https://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/pla...p?a=r&n=659581
here you can see his scores, he won the 50k in hollywood on the 5th of august(dan tweeted about it https://twitter.com/DanSmithHolla/st...38485593288704) and then cashed a 1k on GG poker on the 9th of august, so it's very likely he played with a VPN on GG and prob also played some PLO with his visions RTA.
Someone should write GG a Mail about it.

How about telling Mr. GG, DNegs ?

The Girah scandal was riveting. I was surprised to see Haseeb Qureshi's name recently. Seems to be doing well for himself. He had quite the questionable role in all of that iirc.

However, this Squid character seems to be at least an order of magnitude worse.

I don't have screenshots/proof, but I can say when I was under his "stake", he had a remote server for running sims and ggpoker was on it and vaguely recall him saying in a voice chat that he was trying to play some gg.

Sadly, I've long since lost access to that server and don't have proof but can say it's very likely he played on gg.

I have no proof he cheated but he did play under Japan flag. Think had a huge score on gg in some main

Just post his sn, mb he played some hu/6m plo with it and tanked every hand for a long time

I don’t know what his alias sn was before real name change but on gg there is real name for many players (usually after playing/winning enough especially at higher stakes).

Basically he is under his own name

Also come to think of it there has been a high stakes Japanese I never saw prior regging some of the highest mtts lately (eg 25k wcoop), obv not sure it’s him so I won’t post the sn for now

Given the fact that he developed a software and sells it for $50 a month that allows you to use RTA in MTTs I think it's pretty safe to say that he has been using it himself to play these MTTs on GG.

This has to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

Lmao I missed that

Also makes you wonder how many other people are using it if it's that cheap and accessible

Please change thread title to include his real name. Full confession in post #60 as well as him continually pressuring horse to cheat as well.

I guess there was some cheating in NL 6m also? I got a refund for this on global when they got banned and I don’t play PLO. I forget the screen name now of the one who was in NL, started with an A maybe.

This was made to be a postflop solver as well, similar to visions. He tried to bring on pros such as LuckyChewy to be a face and got quickly shut down, eventually talked out of postflop into preflop solves only.

Definitely has the capability and most likely does have full solves as many as he can in order to avoid playing himself

Surprised the article hasn't been updated yet.

Mods can we add this kids name to the title? He is printing money cheating and using some perceived American privilege as justification.

have a question, is he still not banned yet and is actively still cheating with RTA?

if so lol at those sites allowing such a blatant thing to happen, and it makes you wonder how many people are actually cheating with rta right now that are silent about it?

+1

what a colossal douchebag.

just read those dms

honestly one of the biggest scumbags I've seen in a long time

I don't know what it is with running like a god in tournaments and being a scummy piece of **** but they do seem to go well together.

As well as known screen names. People could be currently playing high stakes vs him and getting cheated daily for large sums.
